Faye@faye4u.com of Originales by Faye Welcome to Faye4U.com carries beautiful ones. All of mine came from her.

I *think* Meleea also carries them and there are definitely a few websites out there. There is a vendor on ebay that has them as well - I think their name is universal_curio.

Have fun! The fan veils are a great prop :)

I agree that Faye's fan veils are great; I have a pair and I love mine.

If you do want to shop around, there is another site that sells them, but I don't know anyone who has ordered from them so I have nothing I can say about their quality or service. Looks like they have a fairly good color selection, though.

Their silk 1.5M and "flutter fans" appear to be the same ones that Universal_curio sels on Ebay. Except I payed about $30 for two 1.5M fans and shipping from China from Universal Curio, and this site is charging $34/fan plus shipping on top of that.

I totally understand a retail markup, but it certainly appears that they are not getting better wholesale deals than the prices dancers can get buying direct from China.

Here is the Ebay seller several people recommended:
They are much more reasonably priced too.

I purchased fans and a DVD from Welcome to Faye4U.com. I was pleased with the product, selection and service. She did mention she does ship to other countries. It might be worth sending an email faye@faye4u.com.

I *think* Aladdin's Cave in the UK stocks the fans as well. I hope that helps! :)

Hi Hasna,

have you found some fan veils? There is a german shop www.sakkara.de who sells them. And I have some from time to time too;-)

I'm looking for a fan veil as well. Something fiery, like black, red, orange and yellow.

I think I saw something like that on universal curio's ebay store.

So, some of the fan veils on universal curio are 1.5m and some are 5 ft. Online metric converter says that 1.5m = 4.92 ft. Just thought others might like to know.

They ship worldwide.

Is it common to dance with just one silk fan or two? I know nothing about silk fan dancing, but want to try it.

dunyah · 08-16-2008, 07:04 PM

I've seen it done mostly with two.

Sounds like a great deal. I want to order some, too. But in watery colors.

Crystallia · 08-16-2008, 07:34 PM

universal curio gave me a total price of $33.00 including shipping to Canada for the 2 "fire" fans I want him to make. What a great deal, eh?

mmouse1534 · 08-16-2008, 10:13 PM

Does anyone know if there are fan dancing video's out there specific for the silk fans?
SOrry for the thread hyjack! :-)

Dahlal had some in her last newsletter, but have ran out of stock. I was told there would be another shipment in a few weeks with a larger color selection. She had a red/orange/yellow that was awesome!!

Crystallia · 08-26-2008, 03:08 PM

I just got my 2 "fire fans" from universal curio - ebay seller. They're GoRgEoUs!!! and they look just like the black, red, orange and yellow fans on Faye's site... in fact...
